Why I Almost Quit G@G For $20

[Other_Tommy_Wiseau]

For those that know me on this site, you know that I'm fairly straight forward. Most of my questions (all 10 of them) and answers and opinions are pretty much meant to make fun of others, as well as myself... For fuck's sake, my avatar is the Michael Jordan surrounded by Jordan cry face memes :D. I don't take this site too seriously for a myriad of reasons. With that said, there is another side to me. A thinking side that does have a lot to say, but I'll get to that in a quick minute

We all obviously know that gag is a tight community so it shouldn't be a surprise that I make fun of people on this site for generally being soft. And I'll also be the 1st to say that people give a lot of stupid opinions. Even though I'm kidding, but not really :P, I generally like the people on this site. People for the most part give funny and/or informative opinions, very stimulating myTakes, thought provoking questions, very challenging responses, etc... Now for the nitty gritty stuff y'all might not like :D

Like I said, I dick around a lot. I give an arbitrary number like 90% of the time, I'm fucking around, while the other 10% i'm serious. The reason, admittedly, is kinda a selfish and somewhat sad 1 to me. It generally stems from the fact that I don't like being subjected to seeing how people really think; what really goes through their mind; how they really see the world

I can't say this for the entire world, but something closer to home (literally) and what prompted this take was this question of Harriet Tubman replacing Andrew Jackson on the $20 bill (question cred: @Bandit74). The comments generally hurt me. not necessarily because of people's opinions, so much as it the dichotomy of how far we've come as a country, yet how little we progressed as a society. 2 answers that struck me were @AleDeEurope and @OlderAndWiser. For the most part, they give good advice overall. If y'all have a problem with me calling y'all out, sorry, should've thought about it should watch what you write :|. Tough shit fam... Don't say stupid shit next time. With all that said, don't pin it all on those 2 cause realistically, I can give 10 more examples in that question, alone, and literally give you thousands of more questions on this site (and other sites) from millions of other people ranging from anything to women's rights, immigration, muslims, same sex and any other "issue" you wanna bring up

The 1st issue is that this is an issue at all. It's a fucking $20 bill switching from 1 person to another. Moreover, it's 1 that celebrates 1 of the most famous abolitionists in the country's history. And yet, all you hear is that "it's a sjw move" or "it's because of feminism" or "to please black people". Is that how people really see the world? Because something changes from 1 thing to another, it can't be to simply recognize a great person?

Then there's this idea of an all or nothing idealism. This exists in @OlderAndWiser's argument. Specifically, he highlights that taking Jackson (who for the most part, was a shitty person overall) is bad because the "social agenda" will cause George Washington to be removed from the $1 bill because we are judging people by today's standards... Since when is genocide and displacing an entire race and ethnicities ever ok? Why? Because he did other good things, and I quote: "It is easy to condemn historical figures by today's standards. However, the process of condemnation seems to be very selective. Jackson was considered a hero for his victory at the Battle of New Orleans and for his leadership in the First Seminole Wars in Florida. He was considered a president of the people , the first populist president, and many considered him a hero for toppling the Second National Bank"... Literally what the shit kind of logic is that? Oh, a great 1. that's why i'm looking to start a movement to get hitler on the Euro... You know, once you look past the Holocaust and starting a 2nd World War, his contribution of germany breaking out of the international banking system, built up Germany's economy, him being a MAJOR advocate of animal rights, gave Germany almost 0 employment, his contributions for free technology research, being the father of the Autobahn and his stance on strong working unions, women's rights and children's rights makes him a real stand up guy, don't you say? I know the Jewish community is with me, right y'all? :|

Now to address what my homeboy, @AleDeEurope, had to say, "... she (Tubman) wasn't part of the birth and construction of this country. She may have helped people, and I'm not saying she did wrong, not at all, I highly value what she did, but she didn't actually help build this country, she helped individuals get free from slavery, but that was already something many people were fighting for... Lincoln was a president and did much more for the country than her, so you can't really compare them." Now, I'm not going to highlight all the bullshit in that statement because it should be fairly obvious for anyone who passed, I don't know, 10th grade social studies. Or if you're genuinely curious in the answer, again, click on the link and go to his post and my response, but the point is to highlight this other stupid thing people do; Beside being factually wrong and ignorant in about 10 different levels, it just shows this mind-numbingly stupid idea that the everything is about being most important or things are mutually exclusive and, therefore, anything less, should be ignored and less important

Now, I realize i'm gonna piss off a lot of people because I'm "race baiting", tough shit. I guess I am. Guess what. It's 2016. The fact that people have this mindset and think this way says more about y'all than anything else. You want America and the world to be a better place, but then still so full of shit that anything that highlights something that doesn't apply to your race, gender, religion, ethnicity, creed and isn't something you're used to is dumb, bad or stupid and being forced down your throat when realistically

A) it won't affect your life in the smallest minutia

B) will benefit or at least make other people happy

Hopefully I didn't piss off too many people... If so, I cool. Y'all seem not so keen on political correctness so here's what I got :). Now, does this make me a social justice warrior? I hope not :/. I'm just a firm believer in the Golden rule and common fucking sense, which I've come to see, is not so common. But if it does mean I am, I'll gladly accept that title if it means it'll help in any way possible for us to move to a place where everyone feels like they're in a better place and play on an even playing field. The point of this take? Not necessarily to educate anyone. Ironically, that's what I feel myTakes should generally be about. I'm kinda disappointed cause I thought my 1st myTake would be about how to fart in public and get away with it or something stupid like that :D. I'm sad that I got to this point where I felt the need to make this take and I genuinely hope that I never feel the need to write a take like this again

This mytake is pretty much to blow off steam on 1 of many things I've noticed and let people know that no, the world doesn't revolve around you. Just because something changes that you aren't accustomed to is bad. That other people do actually appreciate and want their heroes to be recognized for their achievements and just because you don't see them as such means they aren't. And finally, yes, despite being the internet and being able to speak your mind, there is such a thing as ignorance and stupid opinions and can be highlighted for others to see. You might not think that way you're right, but I think I'm a dinosaur. You (whoever this applies to) being so cynical that, God forbid, I, the government or the rest of fucking society recognize, appreciate and celebrate the right people for their contributions to an entire race and society to where we are today in a positive manner

note: I was trying to find a relevant "I'm not racist but..." meme and failed so this is up solely because I found it absolutely hilarious :D

Sorry if I miss out on any of y'all, but I'mma tag some people real quick

@This_is_my_username

@CHARismatic110

That's all I can think of for now and thanks for all that read (or don't) ;)

[RationalMale]

Simple answer?

Yes, really. Particularly given the current political and racial climate, where renters are even being told if they refuse to rent to convicted criminals they could be fined for racial discrimination, it comes across 100% as a SJW/Racial appeasement move.

The real question is, what will people be writing on those $20's with Harriet Tubman? Let's be real, the climate is far more racially hostile than just a few years ago. Blacks and whites will be writing a TON of nasty stuff on those $20's. Not exactly like you'll anyone will be able to stop them--what are you going to do, try to prove they defaced currency and prosecute? Or declare that money with writing on it is illegal to have?

[Other_Tommy_Wiseau]

i don't think people will be writing stuff on $20s. i mean maybe a few, but i don't think that in the current economic climate, people will devalue money like that. there's a bigger point i wanna make, but i don't know how to put it. anyways, thanks for your opinion!

[RationalMale]

Oh yeah, people will be writing on money like that. Everyone has 20's, and no one is going to get refused a purchase.

[CHARismatic110]

Yeah, I tried not to get into it because I'm not happy with the fact that she has to share it. He's going to be on the back of it which rubs me the wrong way. You know him being a slave owner and all. But yeah, i feel like this was just another divide and conquer tactic anyway.

[Other_Tommy_Wiseau]

believe it or not, i don't have that much of a problem with it, it's generally trying to speak to a larger issue that sort of maybe got explained. definitely more so at the end... but yeah, that's kinda odd. also, in fairness to him, he's not the only person on money that owned slaves (washington and jefferson). part of it is people making a big deal about something that has little to no affect on their lives and places it as a political agenda. i mean it can possibly be, but even so, again, will it kill you (them)?

[CHARismatic110]

Yeah I get it. It's sad that those types of reactions are expected when it comes to stuff like this. We aren't allowed to feel any type of way about it. I'm sure you'll get labeled as playing the victim for this. You know that's their favorite thing to say lol smh

[Negrodamuss]

Good on you for writing this. The hysteria over putting her on the $20 is monumental. And of coarse, what is the go to movement to blame for a lot of guys? Feminism. You know a person is biased when they are bending over backwards to keep a slave -owner on the bill by saying that Tubman didn't do enough for the country, therefore she's an invalid choice. You'd think that given Andrew Jackson's history, those people making that argument would be glad that anyone a little better (even if they are not the "best" choice according to them) than him would be a sufficient replacement. But of coarse, that's not what this is about. You know what its actually about, and I'm glad to see that. Cheers

[Other_Tommy_Wiseau]

people make excuses for everything. it's fucking ridiculous. i don;t usually get involved in political movements, not because i'm scared of them, but it just shows a stark reality of what we still need to do in society. i mean think about it, we (and y'all) live in 2 of the most powerful and some of the most progressive and diverse countries and we still have racial, political, economic, gender (al?) problems... like, what the fuck have we been doing where we are still having riots, protests and opinions where this shit still needs to be explained and people are bitching about it as if they are right? it's just beyond sad, to me

[Negrodamuss]

well i think a large part of it has to do with the growing general shipwreck that the world economy is in. When economies fail, people turn quickly to skapegoats. This has been true throughout time, and i believe that the worse the economy gets, the more of this sort of thing you will see. The fight will be across gender lines, racial lines, age lines, and economic lines

[fauchelevent]

I agree with you, I avoided that question :P Something that some consider to be small and inconsequential can mean a hell of a lot to a great deal of people. The only problem I have with her being put on the money is that they thought it was cool to keep a slave owner on it with her.

[Other_Tommy_Wiseau]

i found that odd, too. i really don't care beyond that. like you said, it's just sad to me that people need to make a big deal out of the most inconsequential things for the sake of it. and i might be pot calling the kettle black for making a big deal of those people and giving them the time of day, but it's just funny how people want to make "america (or the world, i guess), great, but can't get beyond something so petty as acknowledging a person who was an icon for the abolition of an entire race

[CheerGirl38139]

Bro I fully feel your need to vent and respect what you had to say.

And this is gonna sound out of character for me, because the jury is still out for me on this whole thing. I have strong yet very mixed feelings about it. So I'm gonna sit this one out. 🙋

[Other_Tommy_Wiseau]

bruh! why you do my in like dat? anyways, i probably should've done a better job of highlighting this, but it's not about whether or not tubman is on the $20 bill or not. believe it or not, i could give 2 shits about it. what i really wanna get across to people is this stupid idea that everything done for the worse or some sort of agenda. now, this can be for gay rights, race, anything. and diminishing people's achievements when they did something monumental in society. they force you to post a pic so i stole bandit74's :P. the issue was sort of a last straw for me to make this take, sort of a representative of the issue and sort of an anecdotal microcosm of a bigger issue i have with a lot of people on this site and, ultimately, society where people are so negative over every little thing and can't enjoy things for what they are when, in reality, won't affect them in the slightest bit. I don't know if the take got that point across, but it was the ultimate goal. anyways, thanks for stopping by

[CheerGirl38139]

Well, to be fair, my stalker is back. AGAIN. so I'm preoccupied

[Other_Tommy_Wiseau]

please call him. or give me his number. i'll help you out :D

[CheerGirl38139]

I wish I still had it. But it's in a post here from a whIle back that was deleted.

Of course we DO know his real name, address, and employer. He's really close to getting a visit by Knoxville PD.

[Other_Tommy_Wiseau]

i just wanna see the end game, really. i wanna know how this shit is gonna go down. i'm terrible. i like seeing shit go flying... well, i got 3 reasons to come to knoxville now

[QuestionMan]

@AleDeEurope I have to say I'm disappointed. Not everything is about SJWs.
I fully support the removal of Andrew Jackson from the bill because of what he stood for. Putting a hero like Tubman on the bill not only acknowledges her accomplishments and services to the US but has the added benefit of showing a sign of inclusion towards women and African-Americans. It's a small gesture that doesn't impact you negatively in the slightest while at the same time reduces the bitching of SJWs.

[Other_Tommy_Wiseau]

exactly! sorry for the late reply. i don't claim to seem like a social justice warrior, i just find it crazy how we live in a world of extremism and it's so hard for people to comprehend that this isn't a bad thing and make everything their business and controversial

[RationalMale]

Yes, it is about SJW's and Black racial appeasement. That's the simple reality of it.

It's like why people were throwing fits to tear down old confederate war memorials on a flimsy basis, yet Louis Farrakhan calling for 10,000 to rise up and kill whites was passed over. As you're not American, I don't expect you to fully understand, but that's the reality of it.

[AleDeEurope]

If it's not a big deal, then why even change anything?
I never said they should keep Jackson, I just said that if they're gonna remove him, they should add someone that was a leader or a father of this country. Tubman was neither of that.
You say not everything is about SJW but then proceed to say this addition will apease women and African Americans... why should that even be something to think about? The reason they have who they have right now is not because they're male and white, it's because of what they founded this country, and lead this country to what it is today.
It's no longer a matter of achievements... which actually is what's happening in the real world and it's what's screwing it up.

You don't give a kid a lollipop every time theu cry for it.

[QuestionMan]

@AleDeEurope @RationalMale Interesting points. I mentioned SJWs as a byproduct of this change not the direct cause for it. Being a White male myself I see nothing wrong with having my own kind be on the bills. The problem is, America is not just the land of the Whites. Blacks are the largest minority, making up about 14% of the population. I'd say this change is long overdue because I see currency as a way of honouring great people and Jackson doesn't deserve such praise. Tubman may not have been a politician but her actions helped shape America for the better. In Canada we honour great people and accomplishments on our bills.
The back of the $100 bill has insulin on it, the back of the $5 has the Canadarm.

[QuestionMan]

@RationalMale I don't know if you know this but I have nothing against the Confederate Flag. To me it is a symbol of rebellion against the Union for many reasons, the main ones being slavery and state rights. I can understand why they separated even though I do not agree with them.

I don't think Confederate flags should be torn down at memorials. It's important to remember the bloody brother war.

Louis Farrakhan and other extremists like him shouldn't be taken seriously. They have no political influence. When you hear hate speech you can do one of 2 things:
1) Whine and bitch about it
or
2) Trivialize the speaker
I prefer the latter. If you want to talk about real extremists with influence then that's the pro-Hamas groups. One of their own got a position at the UN as a representative of Canada.

[This_is_my_username]

Brah! I actually thought that someone gave you 20$ to leave GAG.

But on a serious point. I just went through that post for the hell of it and boy oh boy is there a lot of fighting and misguided opinions. Which is one of the reasons i refuse to post something on a political post because some people just look for a fight. Which i think is stupid.

Plus, we all know you dick around.. who can get pissed at you Wiseass i mean wiseau ;)

[This_is_my_username]

but good on your for writing this dude. It's refreshing to see.

[Other_Tommy_Wiseau]

that's why i generally stay off topics that are even remotely controversial, but i we all make mistakes :P

[This_is_my_username]

@Other_Tommy_Wiseau yeah i definitely understand that part. But at least your tried to get your point across.

[Other_Tommy_Wiseau]

yeah, i try. I don't know if i did, but i tried :D

[Spiorad_Aisce]

Nice to see a different side of you but I think that is what the beauty of this site is that people can have different views and discuss it out - While I freely admit there are discussions that if I got stuck into, I might get wound up - I don't mind people having a different view to me as long as they discuss it in a reasonable fashion - That said I have always thought of GaG as entertainment and for the sake of my sanity I avoid discussions that may disintegrate, it is a policy I adopted early on in my time on the site.
Back to your take, it is obvious that the interaction got to you yesterday and you had a chance to get it out of your system with the take. It is good you decided to stay. As I said just use GaG for fun, entertainment and constructive things - The minute if feels negative or annoys you go to a different post or take a break - To paraphrase "Gone With The Wind" I will quote "Tomorrow is another day".

[YourFutureEx]

I can't believe how your take managed to survive. Not only survive but promoted. You're a good funny person but this take will increase arguments or could be a "member post".

This site is full of shit people. If you want to leave because of that, I'm surprised what took you so long to understand that.

[sluggognatface]

And the shit people have so many multiple accounts regardless if they admit it or not to have a louder voice. What gets me is that they are too afraid to voice their REAL opinion on race. Fuckin cowards.

[YourFutureEx]

@sluggognatface some people PM others to take their side and upvote their opinions too xD lol lifeless peeps.

[sluggognatface]

Great point. I do that to convince everyone on here that my inverted penis is really 9 inches long :P (they probably really do that and it's pathetic)

[YourFutureEx]

@sluggognatface woah I should use this trick too 😯

[sluggognatface]

It always works! :)

[Other_Tommy_Wiseau]

Lol, of all the bullshit takes and questions other people make, I think mine will be fine, but thanks for the concern 😂. Anyways, I find it pretty funny and ironic. Most of the people on this site are so preachy about accepting others and being soft, yet, as soon as I say something about, what I thought we should be striving for (accepting others), somehow I'm the butt hurt 1. Now, this issue itself isn't what caused me to think of leaving. It's a combination of many stupid comments that have turned from celebrating others to bitching about who's more deserving or complaining that we changed something from a person who was responsible for genocide to a person who helped free an entire culture. And this asinine idea that because someone didn't flat out say they're racist, a biggot

[Other_Tommy_Wiseau]

Fuck my phone

Anyways, a bigot doesn't mean they aren't. Like, "I'm not racist but I don't think Muslims shouldn't be allowed in America". "I'm not sexist, but I don't think gay people should have rights to marry cause I don't believe in it, despite it will not interfere with my life in anyway". "You know, this equal rights thing is all propaganda being forced upon me". As if equality or the representation of different cultures or rights are so hard to grasp. With that said, doesn't make a person definitively a racist, bigot or any other word, but its still the fact that we have this kind of mentality with ordinary, everyday people

[YourFutureEx]

I can understand. Such things are bound to happen when a bunch of sociopaths meet on an opinion site where no one could ridicule them for what they say

[sluggognatface]

Exactly man. Unreal thoughts by these people. If we allow gay marriage than more people will turn gay? Ha

[Chief16]

Why didn't it matter uptil now? In 2016, some politician wants to stir up racial tension and holy shit is he doing a bang job of it. And the worst part is everyone is taking the bait.
It doesn't matter who's 'politically' right or wrong. Because whatever the outcome of this is, everyone is still gonna lose.

[Ginnyweasley97]

I commented on that post and I quickly regretted it. I have to remind myself not to comment on any political posts not even one word, because some people are looking for a fight.

[Other_Tommy_Wiseau]

i usually don't, but every so often, but every once in a while, i forget not to make stupid life decisions and ruin my day

[QuestionMan]

You have pretty good opinions, even though I usually disagree with them it's always nice to hear opposing views so long as they're done so in a respectable manner.

[Ginnyweasley97]

@QuestionMan I totally agree I think if I was ever in a huge position of power like president, I would want advisors from both sides of the political spectrum. But I would never want to be president because I hate making decisions that will affect a lot of people.

You were another ignorant that thought I was talking about race? Oh my god, what's up with y'all thinking everything is about you you you you...

I'm flattered, by the way :*

[Other_Tommy_Wiseau]

no, sweetheart. i wrote a mytake because it speaks to something i noticed on gag and felt the need to say. you happened to be a tipping point and happened to be just 1 example. it explains everything. don't worry :P

[AleDeEurope]

A tipping point that you created yourself.

[ConsultantIsBack]

That kissy emoji tho hahaha!

[Other_Tommy_Wiseau]

i'd like for you to explain how i created a tipping point based on other's opinions...

[AleDeEurope]

You made this a race issue when it never was. I never even mentioned her race on my post. I was simply stating the fact that there's people that did more for this country than her.
You automatically assumed I don't know history, which is an absolute lie, because I said she wasn't as important as others?
You assumed over and over again, like Afro-dite.

[Other_Tommy_Wiseau]

funny enough, in my edit, i took out a paragraph or 2 and a meme that addressed that very point. and moreover, there were a ton of inconsistencies in your statement (s). but i'll leave it at that

[AleDeEurope]

What inconsistencies?

[sluggognatface]

Would it matter if him or someone else pointed them out? You seem like a decent fella but you would argue and disagree even if shown any inconsistencies.

[AleDeEurope]

@sluggognatface I will argue when they call me out on stuff that is not true. I don't know about you or others, but I care about myself.

"Offended"

lol what do u mean by "offended"

[ConsultantIsBack]

Yeah Harriet Tubman was an American hero. Andrew Jackson was a piece of shit and an awful president. in my opinion, great decision U. S. Treasury Department/Obama Administration!

[RationalMale]

Andrew Jackson was a soldier even as a child, fighting in the War for Independence. Than he was a war hero during the War of 1812. Then he was a President.

What are you?

[CHARismatic110]

@RationalMale you've listed the "good", now where's the bad? Or are you just gonna skip past all that?

[sluggognatface]

@CHARismatic110 Of course he will skip past that. Imagine the ugliness we could see in his head if we could.

[RationalMale]

@CHARismatic110 Every great leader in history has had his critics, and his disasters. That doesn't change that someone was indeed a great leader. And Jackson's case, that he was a war hero.

[CHARismatic110]

@RationalMale sure thing bud.

[sluggognatface]

I joined in also and tried my best to be calm. I lived with racist white people. Yeah the ones that say "I wish all them ni%%ers would get on a boat with a slow leak". The thing here is all the multiple accounts by the people that have all this hate. The upvote and back each other up (they themselves) and want people to think that their way of thinking is the norm. Of course Jackson is a piece of shit and NO Obama did not decide this and he did not divide the country. He exposed the racism.

[PT1911]

Boo fuckin hoo? How long did that take to think up?

But if it's so unimportant a bill that changing it shouldn't be an issue, why change it then... if it's not so important?

I don't know, ask them... I don't make the money, I just hope to get some 💵. With that said, the broader question I pose to you would be that why do people take issue with it being changed? Especially if it's from someone responsible for the mass genocide of an entire race vs someone who was 1 of the catalysts for the abolition of slavery of an entire race? I, myself, don't care so much for it being changed or not. It's a fucking picture. But the idea that this is somehow so controversial and hard for people to accept to the point that they'll deminish the accomplishment of someone who tried to better a race or group of people while defending an otherwise racist person, even by the standards of 200 years ago, baffles me and infuriates me. Not because it's a stupid opinion, but people still see the world that way and truly can't grasp and want to ignore why minorities of any demographic feel that there's some injustice in the world simply cause it has never applied to them

and people turn it from what it is or may be into a political agenda that's rammed down their throat because of social justice warriors, pc nerds, etc, instead of what it is, recognizing great people who did great things for society
